He's inactive from the IFBB (seems others don't want to say "retired" as of yet), and apparently there are rumors of him becoming a father and/or an MMA fighter....

I always wondered what happened to him, too. Saw him Guest Pose a few years back and he looked INCREDIBLE to say the least ! I hope all is well with him ... would love to see him compete again.

Chris is doing great, he just won his first 'serious' MMA fighting event, and if all goes well, might see him soon in a 'big' fight. At the moment, he is moving up the ranks of MMA. And keeping a slow profile.

cook is a funny story. i remember a sob story they had in flex how he struggled financially
all his life and sacrificed everything to turn pro, just to become a "where is he now?" story a fews after turning pro (in controversial fashion)

Probably realized why risk your health chemically for little financial, if any, reward, and moved on with his life. Good for him. BEST OF LUCK.

Why'd he stop competing, Ron ?

Ron, in summer 06, MD had an interview with Chris in which he said he was going to come back and do some damage in the pro shows of 07.

Did he change that mind after the interview? What happened? etc etc

I always liked Chris' physique. Shame he didn't do much in pro bbing.

Anybody have the pics that were floating around here of his last guest posing before he "retired"?  The ones where he's blatantly off the sauce?

Whatever happened to Chris Cook? I know that he placed last in the Arnold in 06. Has he done anything since? Does anyone know?

Last I heard, he was helping out Try Alves with his Ticket scalping business.


Don't be surprised if you run into Chris Cook outside of the Orleans, and he holding a sign reading "Olympia tix".

Maybe his wife helped him realize professional bodybuilding isnt worth it. He probly got out before his nutsack shriveled up so he could possibly have a family and a meaningful life after his 40's. Maybe... Maybe he just changed his life direction. . . The world may never know.

easy fellas as part of my job as gay cop for getbig, i have to remove lockerroom trolls. Nobody likes them even gay guys.

Cromm, your post is very suspect, but for know I will give you the benefit of the doubt, but remember this is not a board for sexual lurking, gay or straight.  I suppose  you can go to the sex boards down below and see what the moderators say.
